Like many managers, the success of your work might depend at least in part on those outside your sphere of direct influence, whether it is because they are in a different unit or division, they are on the same management level as you, or they work for another organization with which you're collaborating. Or perhaps you are responsible for delivering projects using contractors where traditional line management is less applicable? Or you could be a technical expert and still have to get things done through others - but can’t tell people what to do?
These scenarios represent the complex business relationships. You may not have traditional line management capability, you probably still need to be able to lead and influence those you work with.
In these cases, you might not be able to use "traditional" modes of leadership and it is therefore important to understand how to convince people to follow your lead. influencing without authority is about selling: you need to sell others on your ideas and why they should be a part of your action plan.
Leading others when you don't have direct authority over them can seem daunting or even impossible. However, effective leadership is about influencing and motivating others to take action - rather than giving orders. Being effective takes influence, persuasion and motivation. Join our engaging, 60-minute program to learn how to build relationships and gain support for your initiatives.
